Blue Area Hotels, Islamabad

"The staff were very helpful"

"Excellent breakfast menu. Love the spa"

"Moevenpick Islamabad has the best view of any hotel in Islamabad. However, they have ruined the view by putting an advertisement on one entire facade of the building. Since that is the side that has the Classic and Deluxe rooms, most of those rooms have been sacrificed for some advertising revenue, unfortunately. I had booked a Classic room and had to upgrade it to a Deluxe at the back of the building, just to get an unfettered view. The staff seems to think the advertisement has no impact on the view, but in reality it has reduced the natural light into the rooms by at least 50%, plus if you wish to sit by the windows and look outside, you can see all the dots (pixels) that make up the ad, covering the entire window. It is not an unfettered view by any stretch of the imagination. It is quite annoying. I really request the hotel management to remove the ad and not ruin customer experience because of it. Since I upgraded and requested to be moved to one of the very few rooms in the building without the ad on the window, I actually had a wonderful time at the hotel. The room was super comfortable and beautiful. The staff at the reception, at the breakfast and from housekeeping were extremely warm and hospitable and took great care of me, and my every whim. I also got sick one day, and the staff at breakfast went out of their way to make me food that would be good for my tummy, and even packing a few things that would keep my tummy stable during the day. 5 star in every way!

"Breakfast was Not very good, timing of the breakfast file was too restrictive which caused problems."

"We had a wonderful time at this location. The staff at the front desk was exceptional. Food was great. Just on snag at the breakfast was the indifference of the supporting staff. Getting regular tea bags became such a big problem. One minor issue was the bathroom door lock. You could not lock it and if you did you couldn’t unlock it. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay. I recommend this hotel strongly."

"The staff was very friendly and willing to assist with any special request. Mr Raza Subtain was definitely very pleasant at all times in his daily greetings. It was a joy to get to know him and the fro t desk personnel. "

"The hotel looks much better in photos than in reality. The actual condition of the room and facilities was far below expectations. There was a strong chemical cleaning smell in the room and throughout the property, which made it uncomfortable to stay. The maintenance level was poor, with worn paint, stained curtains, and generally unfinished surfaces. Breakfast was also disappointing. The food quality was below standard. After one night, I decided to leave early, even though my reservation was for four nights, because the conditions were far below standadrd and not comfortable for me. I requested a rebate for the unused nights, but it was declined. I still left due to the smell. Overall, this property needs significant improvement in cleanliness, maintenance, and quality control. Based on my experience, I would not choose to stay here again."

"The hotel is well located in a center area of Islamabad. The room was comfortable, clean, and had all the essentials for a good stay. All members of the staff were great, friendly and helpful. I will certainly stay here again."

"I booked for a Business Suite with 1 bedroom and instead ended up in a studio style accommodation. There was no customary phone that you always find in any hotel room and had to go down to the lobby every time I needed something. There was no room service to change bedsheets/linen. The bathroom had a leak in its pipe which flooded the bathroom floor."
